As this is now soon-ish, could those who are unreconfirmed please reconfirm? Also, if you haven’t said what you’re offering please do so now

Even if I don't make the cut, don't rule me out for contributions - my cellar is designed to fuel events.

If we are having the Sandeman, please could we also have the Vau? I don’t get many chances to compare these side-by-side and would love to do so on the 24th.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.
2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

If not having already done so, then reconfirming. In addition to the three on the first post I have V (as previously advised) plus a CaF.

Damn - I’m afraid I cannot reconfirm. Hopefully a reservist can make it (if not, I’ll send a bottle down).

No - Sogrape's UK VP distribution went off the rails during the late 80's and 90's - there's just no old stock around of Sandeman, Offley or Ferreira.Tom - we already have the SV, but I've been unable to obtain the S (despite buying a case of it & it actually being S77). Do you have it?
George has retired now, so I don't know who a bottle might best be begged from in Pt..

The other notable exception so far is Noval. Seems to be equally rare.
Re: 1997 @ 25, Tues 24th May 2022 @ B&F
OK - will leave you on the reserve list.
Douglas - place is yours if you want it? Need to know ASAP.
